Seth Barron's answers sound like ones I've given, so I share his sentiments. Having lived much of my life as an accidental bookworm, I've envied people who work with their hands.

My uncle who was an auto mechanic was a wizard at building model cars and ships. I failed at that, too. An eye problem inhibits my ability to draw a straight line with a ruler. Barron might be interested in the Woodcraft catalog which sells kits and plans, maybe starting small with a birdhouse. I know a retired doctor in a rural area who whittles branches and twigs into walking sticks, which is actually a good idea if you walk in the woods. Have you watched the Lock Picking Lawyer on YouTube? Interesting guy. Lock companies send him prototypes. If nothing else, he teaches us a couple vital lessons. One, there's no such thing as a lock which can't be picked. Two, don't buy a Masterlock.
Buy American lockpicks!
Lol!
